HOUSTON — A lucky winner for a jackpot prize is somewhere in Houston. Texas Lottery says the ticket is now worth more than $20 million.
It was sold on Saturday, October 2, at the BFM Food Mart on Renwick Drive and Bellaire Blvd.
The winning numbers for the ticket are 1, 9, 14, 23, 29 and 41.
The prize started at $5 million on June 9. It’s now the game’s largest win in over a year. The last big win was worth $47 million for a Seguin resident.
